the crash. let's go to mark. hi there, sal. good morning, to you. this is a dangerous type of fog where we could have clear skies and then you encounter that fog bank and in an instant drop off visibility. but into the afternoon hours very warm numbers inland. tomorrow a little bit cooler. the weekend still dry but a little bit cooler as well. current temperatures are in the 40s. a few upper 30s up toward novato and napa. hayward checking in 47. the fog a big factor coast side and up in the north bay. santa rosa visibility there three quarter of a mile. latest observation at oakland 1/8 of a mile. the fog still hugging parts of the shoreline. extending out toward berkeley and richmond. in the afternoon hours we will warm things up. that will translate to a few spots approaching the 80-degree

mark this afternoon. the cooler end of the temperature range right near the immediate shoreline. there's our forecast model in the short term show you the dense fog between now and 10:00. and then into the afternoon hours still picking up a few left over patches from parts of the coastline. this forecast model clears it out completely. we could have a few left over patches. 8:00 this morning areas of fog 42-52 degrees. relatively clear skies well inland. by 12:00 still patchy coastal fog. and 3:00 mild to warm. there is the eventual temperature range and a few low 80s showing up. brentwood we will go to 80. san jose a forecast high of 76. and look at gilroy 80 degrees. look ahead your five-day forecast a little cooler for your thursday. no major changes with partly sunny skies by the weekend. time now 5:10. the fatal crash just hours ago south of petaluma has shut down one lane of highway 101.

tara moriarty is live near the marin-sonoma county border. you're there now so what happened? >> reporter: the coroner is on scene and they have taken pictures of the victim. they're trying to get an id on her. behind me you can see there is firefighters standing around. you can't see but there is a ditch there. and that is where the truck is. the woman's body was behind the wheel but they just removed it a couple minutes ago. firefighters will begin the task of trying to get the car out of the ditch. if we take a look at video shot earlier this morning. the chp says around 2:15 they received a 911 call from a passenger inside the truck who had been injured. we're just north of novato. south of petaluma along a very dangerous stretch of 101. the woman was driving northbound when she drifted into the center divide and officers say it looks like she over corrected and then ended up in the ditch.

>> it took our officers several minutes to find the vehicle as it was in an inconspicuous spot. when they did find the vehicle firefighters were responding. the driver was pronounced deceased at the scene. and three of the passengers were transported with major injuries. >> reporter: we are told that victim is 31 years old out of petaluma. the three passengers also in their 30s were in the car and received major injuries. two taken to santa marin memorial. firefighters and chp says this is the third fatal crash along 101. the crash is still under investigation. it's unknown whether the woman perhaps fell asleep at the wheel or if alcohol was a factor. right now one northbound lane is still shut down. we have been told it will be another ten minutes or so before they are able to get the truck out of the ditch and then they will reopen the roadway.

morning near the coast and bay. but inland this afternoon aprepping the 80-degree mark. welcome back. good morning, to you. here's a quick look at some of the top stories we are following for you at 5:44. extra security at foothill high school in pleasanton. families were alerted by the principal yesterday. someone wrote a threatening message in the girl's bathroom. the threats said and i'm quoting everyone on campus would be shot. also just a little while ago in fact just minutes ago a northbound lane of highway 101 reopened. it was closed early this morning because of a fatal crash right near the marin- sonoma county line. a tow truck just finished removing the pickup truck. in that crash a woman was killed, three men were hurt in that early morning crash. and in rome we are still waiting for the election of a new pope. black smoke came out of the chimney of the sistine chapel a little more than two hours ago. another round or two of voting on who will be the new pope

will take place later today. a group of surfers is going back to court to try to regain access to a popular san mateo beach. the case involves martin's beach. the beach was sold several years ago and since then the new owner has blocked the public from using the private road to the beach. the suit claims that gated road is in violation of the state's coastal act. a recent ktvu news report on head injuries is leading to action. sources tell us that our report has persuaded the nfl to consider a genetic test for players. they broke the story last month of a cheek swab test that shows genetic bio markers for brain damage after a concussion. the test was created by marin county physician and former 49er line backer james kovach.

good on 101. some of the fog will be around obviously on the coast. so right now though highway 1 looks good as you drive from half-moon bay to pacifica. we're taking a look at the fog and some of the cold numbers stepping outside the door this morning. not too cold but a few upper 30s. as you can see out toward antioch and napa and novato. san jose 50. downtown san francisco 47. as far as the fog we have been tracking it all morning long and dense patches near the coast. up toward santa rosa. three quarter os ever a mile. really targeting as it shoots on to the golden gate bridge out toward berkeley and richmond and albany. and visibilities down to one eighth of a mile. gives you an idea of how much fog you are dealing with. well inland out toward concord and livermore. high pressure in full command of our weather. the storm track heads way up to the north and the high basically forcing air down.

that is sinking air. that is why it's squashing the marine layer. but it also warms things up. warmest locations to reach the upper 70s to lower 80s afternoon. the other extreme we have a bit of an on shore breeze. the beaches haven't been warming up too much. mainly in the 60s with the exception in the santa cruz. this morning nor 8:00 42-50 degrees. by 12:00 still patchy coastal fog. here's the temperature range. we are tucking about lower 80s by 3:00. 62-80. forecast highs this afternoon santa rosa 78. a lot of upper 70s to right around 80 toward brentwood. oakland 73. san jose forecast high 76 and these numbers on average about 3-6 degrees warmer than yesterday. look ahead your five-day forecast a little cooler for thursday and friday but no major changes. no rain clouds on the five-day graphic. boeing can start making
